My requirement is to search on 2 different tables : Vets and Clinics. There might be relation between them i.e result should fetch clinics have 'a' in name and vets having 'a' in them. Vets might be related to clinics or might not. Currently I'm doing the following. Is there any method to avoid running 2 queries which can also help me use the cakephp pagination helper?
$this->paginate = array(
'Vet' => array(
'conditions' => $conditions,
'fields' => array('Vet.id', 'Vet.name', 'Vet.professionnal_address', 'phone_number', 'Vet.email', 'Vet.type', 'Vet.latitude', 'Vet.longitude','Vet.city','Vet.clinic_id','Vet.zipcode'),
'joins' => array(
array(
'table' => 'vet_appointment_types',
'alias' => 'VetAppointmentType',
'type' => 'LEFT',
'conditions' => array(
'Vet.id = VetAppointmentType.vet_id',
)
)
),
'limit' => $limit,
'group' => array(
'Vet.id'
),
'order' => array(
'Vet.name' => 'ASC'
)
),
'Clinic' => array(
'conditions' => $conditions1,
'fields' => array('Clinic.*'),
'limit' => $limit,
'order' => array(
'Clinic.name' => 'ASC'
)
)
);
$results = $this->paginate('Vet');
$results2 = $this->paginate('Clinic');
I tried by extending the default pagination component in a non database model and using union but the database structure in a bit complex so can't use union. Also, i think implementing a temporary table based model would be an option, but since it'll be used for searching, so how exactly to go about implementing it, I'm unable to think. Any help would be +1'd ;)
As per the suggestion, I accomplished it by using database views. Below is the code. Any improvement suggestions is highly appreciated.
// \app\Model\Search.php
App::uses('ConnectionManager', 'Model');
App::uses('AppModel', 'Model');
App::uses('CakeLog', 'Log');
class Search extends AppModel {
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$connection = ConnectionManager::getDataSource('default');
$return = $connection->execute("CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW `search` AS
SELECT Vet.id, (CONCAT( `Vet`.`fname` , ' ', `Vet`.`lname` )) AS name, 'vet' AS TYPE , Vet.latitude, Vet.longitude, Vet.zipcode, Vet.speciality FROM `db`.`vets` AS `Vet`
UNION
SELECT Clinic.id, Clinic.name, 'clinic' AS TYPE , Clinic.lat, Clinic.long, Clinic.zipcode, Clinic.address FROM `db`.`clinics` AS `Clinic`");
$return = ($return == true)?'Search View created successfully on '.date('Y-m-d H:i:s'):$return;
CakeLog::write('search', $return);
}
public $useTable = 'search';// This model does not use a database table
public $primaryKey = 'id'; // Define primary key
public $useDbConfig = 'default'; // Define db
}
This is the model.Everytime user searches anything, when the model is loaded in controller, view is created/replaced so that updated values can be fetched. It can be used as any other model in cakephp. It also supports virtualFields as well. To build your query for the database view you can also use the query builder which i used as follows.
$joins = array(
array(
'table' => 'vet_appointment_types',
'alias' => 'VetAppointmentType',
'type' => 'LEFT',
'conditions' => array(
'Vet.id = VetAppointmentType.vet_id',
)
)
);
$dbo = $this->Vet->getDataSource();
$subQuery = $dbo->buildStatement(
array(
'fields' => array('Vet.id', 'Vet.name'),
'table' => $dbo->fullTableName($this->Vet),
'alias' => 'Vet',
'limit' => $limit,
'group' => array(
'Vet.id'
),
'order' => array(
'Vet.name' => 'ASC'
),
'offset' => null,
'joins' => $joins,
'conditions' => $conditions
),
$this->Vet
);
$query = $subQuery;
$query .= ' UNION ';
$dbo = $this->Clinic->getDataSource();
$subQuery = $dbo->buildStatement(
array(
'fields' => array('Clinic.id', 'Clinic.name'),
'table' => $dbo->fullTableName($this->Clinic),
'alias' => 'Clinic',
'limit' => $limit,
'conditions' => $conditions1,
'limit' => $limit,
'order' => array(
'Clinic.name' => 'ASC'
),
'offset' => null
),
$this->Clinic
);
$query .= $subQuery;
print_r($query);
I am currently working on a web application (written in PHP, based on Yii), which, among other things, lets you connect different price values for products. Each product can have multiple prices, but the system is built in a way that I can easily (and correctly) determine the type of the price field - so while each product can have multiple price fields, it can only have one of each type of price fields.
The part where I stuck is when I have to display the stored value of these fields in a list, and order the list view by them - I can display them correctly and sort them by one column, but as soon as I try to make the list to be sortable by all of the columns (not at the same time, of course), the rows start to display the wrong values.
Here are the relevant pieces of code:
In the model, at relations:
'productPriceConnects' => array(Product::HAS_MANY, 'ProductPriceConnect', 'product_id'),
'price1' => array(Product::HAS_ONE, 'ProductPriceConnect', 'product_id',
'joinType' => 'LEFT JOIN',
'on' => 'priceBeszerzesi.product_price_field_id=:product_price_field_id AND priceBeszerzesi.active = 1',
'params' => array(':product_price_field_id' =>ProductPriceField::model()->findByAttributes(array('active' => 1, 'type' => 1, 'category' => 6))->id),
'alias' => 'priceBeszerzesi',
),
'price2' => array(Product::HAS_ONE, 'ProductPriceConnect', 'product_id',
'joinType' => 'LEFT JOIN',
'on' => 'priceEladasi.product_price_field_id=:product_price_field_id AND priceEladasi.active = 1',
'params' => array(':product_price_field_id' => ProductPriceField::model()->findByAttributes(array('active' => 1, 'type' => 1, 'category' => 1))->id),
'alias' => 'priceEladasi'
),
'price3' => array(Product::HAS_ONE, 'ProductPriceConnect', 'product_id',
'joinType' => 'LEFT JOIN',
'on' => 'priceAkcios.product_price_field_id=:product_price_field_id AND priceAkcios.active = 1',
'params' => array(':product_price_field_id' => ProductPriceField::model()->findByAttributes(array('active' => 1, 'type' => 1, 'category' => 5))->id),
'alias' => 'priceAkcios'
),
In the model, at search:
...
$criteria->with('price1', 'price2', 'price3);
...
$criteria->compare('price1.price', $this->beszerzesi, true);
$criteria->compare('price2.price', $this->eladasi, true);
$criteria->compare('price3.price', $this->akcios, true);
...
$sort->attributes = array(
'price1' =>array(
'asc' => 'priceBeszerzesi.price ASC',
'desc' => 'priceBeszerzesi.price DESC',
),
'price2' =>array(
'asc' => 'priceEladasi.price ASC',
'desc' => 'priceEladasi.price DESC',
),
'priceAkcios' =>array(
'asc' => 'price3.price ASC',
'desc' => 'price3.price DESC',
),
'*'
);
...
return new CActiveDataProvider($this, array(
'criteria' => $criteria,
'sort' => $sort,
'pagination' => array(
'pageSize' => 10,
),
)
);
The columns' data in gridview:
'eladasi' => array(
'name' => 'price2',
'header' => 'Eladási ár',
'type' => 'raw',
'headerHtmlOptions' => array('class' => 'auto-width text-center'),
'value' => '!empty($data->price2->price) ? $data->price2->price == "" ? "-" : $data->price2->price : "-"',
'htmlOptions' => array('class' => 'border-right auto-width text-center'),
),
'akcios' => array(
'name' => 'priceAkcios',
'header' => 'Akciós',
'value' => '!empty($data->price3->price) ? $data->price3->price == "" ? "-" : $data->price3->price : "-"',
'headerHtmlOptions' => array('class' => 'auto-width text-center'),
'htmlOptions' => array('class' => 'border-right auto-width text-center'),
),
'beszerzesi' => array(
'name' => 'price1',
'header' => 'Beszerzési ár',
'type' => 'raw',
'value' => '!empty($data->price1->price) ? $data->price1->price == "" ? "-" : $data->price1->price : "-"',
'headerHtmlOptions' => array('class' => 'auto-width text-center'),
'htmlOptions' => array('class' => 'border-right auto-width text-center'),
),
This code makes it possible to sort the list by all three of the relation-dependent columns, but every column displays the same value - the value of the last relation in the with array. If the last element in the array is price3, then the columns display the value of the price3 relation.
When I remove all relation names from the with array expect one, I can sort the list by that column, but not the others.
My question is this:
Is there any way to
1) surely add any number of relations to a model, connecting to the same db field, but depending on conditions,
2) and display these values WHILE enabling sorting based on them?
Find solution below:
I created these tables at my system and used your relation and gridview code. I made some changes in that code and now in below code searching and sorting is working perfectly.
I defined three variable in model class i.e.
public $beszerzesi;
public $eladasi;
public $akcios;
Then I changed the param's name in relation arraye used with left join. This was the main issue in your code. You used same name for parameters i.e. :product_price_field_id I assigned different name for each parameters. While yii prepare sql query it will replace the parameters which are assigned to query. In your case it was replacing same value for all three parameters.
Also i made some changes in sort and compare attributes passed in CActiveDataProvider. You can find all changes in below model file.

I am trying to use CGridView with custom query, and trying to build a very simple with no sorting and stuff.
My View contains simple CGridView
$this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array(
'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
));
And my controller passes the $dataProvider to the view
$count=Yii::app()->db->createCommand('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ( ' . $query . ' ) as count')->queryScalar();
$dataProvider=new CSqlDataProvider($query, array(
'keyField' => false,
'totalItemCount'=>$count,
'pagination'=>array(
'pageSize'=>10,
),
));
I don't have a keyField therefore I have set it to false. Moreover, I have tried printing out data using var_dump, data is present in the variable, but still I get this undefined offset error.
You need to set the mapping for sorting.
/*
Query results
array(
array(
'id' => 1,
'username' => 'username',
'email' => 'email'
),
...
)
*/
return new CSqlDataProvider($query, array(
'keyField' => 'id', //required, any field from query results
'totalItemCount'=> $count,
'pagination' => array(
'pageSize' => 10
),
'sort' => array(
'defaultOrder' => array(
'username' => CSort::SORT_DESC,
),
'attributes' => array(
'username',
'email',
),
),
));
//grid.columns
array(
array(
'name' => 'id' //WO sort
),
array(
'name' => 'username', //with sort (isset in dp.sort.attributes)
),
)
you have to provide keyfield other than false, change keyfield primary key of your query Table
I have User model which contain a function that calculates the average revenue per user. Now i want apply sorting in CGridView on the column which is associated with getAvgRevenue() function. While license is relation in the User model.
Here is my code,
public class User{
$user_id;
$email;
public function getAvgRevenue(){
$count = 0;
$revenue = 0;
foreach ($this->license as $license){
$revenue += $license->price;
$count++;
}
if($count!= 0){
$averageRevenue = $revenue/$count;
return $averageRevenue;
}
else{
return null;
}
}
}
In Controller
$modelUser = new CActiveDataProvider('User', array(
'sort' => array(
'attributes' => array(
'user_id',
'email',
'averagerevenue'
),
'defaultOrder' => array(
'user_id' => CSort::SORT_ASC,
),
),
));
In view
<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array(
'id' => 'user-grid',
'dataProvider' => $modelUser,
'columns' => array(
array(
'header' => 'User ID',
'name' => 'user_id',
),
array(
'header' => 'Email',
'name' => 'email',

array(

Sorting is applicable on user_id and email but Average Revenue column is not sortable. how to specify model method in sort() of CActiveDataprovider
Please help me to solve the problem.
Try this:
$modelUser = new CActiveDataProvider('User', array(
'sort' => array(
'attributes' => array(
'user_id',
'email',
'avgRevenue' //here's the change for you
),
'defaultOrder' => array(
'user_id' => CSort::SORT_ASC,
),
),
));
And your gridview column should be:
array(
'header'=>'Average Revenue',
'value'=>'avgRevenue',
),
and you can read more info on it over here:
